All adventure activities done above the ground carry certain inherent risks. We have taken numerous steps to mitigate these risks. Safety is our priority!

What if I have never done a zipline course before?

The majority of our participants have never done a zipline course before. No prior experience is necessary. Don’t worry, your guides will give you a complete orientation before we take you on the adventure.

How long is the zipline course?

The zipline course consists of 5 ziplines (totaling around 3,000 ft of cables) and one 50 ft tree Rappell.

The zipline adventure is designed for use by participants of average mobility and strength, and who are in reasonably good health. No children under the age of 10 or weighing less than 85 pounds will be allowed to participate in our zipline adventure.

You will be fitted with a seat harness and a double pulley system; for safety you will use gloves and a helmet.
